To ensure that its students become as professionally qualified as possible to meet the needs of scientific research and the labor market, the doctoral program regularly engages with social, scientific, and cultural actors in the local area. Every six months, the Doctoral College organizes meetings with representatives of social partners and local and national stakeholders to take stock of the issues raised by the world of scientific research, work, and the third sector with regard to the professional profile of PhD graduates.
